The Golgi apparatus is a well known staging area for all proteins that leave the cell, including hormones, antibodies and components of hair, bone and skin.
Proteins are classified, according to their subcellular locations, into the following 18 groups: cell wall, centriole, chloroplast, cyanelle, cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, endoplasmic reticulum, extracell, Golgi apparatus, hydrogenosome, lysosome, mitochondria, nucleus, peroxisome, plasma membrane, plastid, spindle pole body, and vacuole [22].
Shields' laboratory showed it for the first time that a cellular organelle called the Golgi apparatus also plays a role in apoptosis.
